| Fast and Cheap Got 4 of these from Amazon at very good price. Drives are super fast, running HyperV with a bunch of VMs. Did anyone do any QA/QC testing? Well, lets see, 6 Seagate Cheetah drives in an array, one failed within 3 months of lite use during startup. | |

Adjusting the Power Setting
You can choose how long your drive should remain inactive before it goes into power-saving mode. Power-saving mode conserves energy by telling your drives internal storage disk to stop spinning when it is not in use. Though power-saving mode uses less electricity, it takes a little more time for your drive to become active again when you want to use it. If you use your drive a lot, you may want to choose a longer time interval, so that your work is not interrupted when opening files from or saving files to your drive. If you use your drive less frequently, you may want to choose a shorter time interval, so that your drive is not consuming more energy than it needs. To adjust the power setting: Step 1: In the My Drives window, select the drive you want to adjust and click Settings. The Settings window opens. Step 2: Click Adjust Power Setting. The Adjust Power Setting window opens. Step 3: Select an interval from the drop-down menu or click Default to return to the original power setting time for the drive.
Step 4: Click Apply to save the power setting. The Adjust Power Setting window confirms that the power setting for your drive has been changed. Step 5: Click OK to return to the My Drives window.

Backing Up and Restoring Folders and Files
Backup Features
With Seagate Manager, you can back up valuable files to your FreeAgent drive. Each file you choose to back up from your computer is copied to your drive. If you ever lose one of the original files on your computer, you can easily restore it from the backup version. For increased data security, you can back up your files to an encrypted folder on your drive. Folder encryption uses AES 256-bit encryption to ensure your private files cant be accessed without your encryption password.

Managing Security
Creating an Encryption Folder
The Encryption feature provides encryption of multiple files and folders in one location, the Encryption folder. After you create and set a password for the Encryption folder, you can drag and drop files and folders into it to secure them. When the files are encrypted, they are copied. No files are moved on your computer. The original, unencrypted version of a file or folder remains on your computer along with the newly encrypted version, which is stored on your FreeAgent drive. For total security, you should delete the unencrypted version from your computer. If you do not delete the unencrypted original version of a file, and you later decrypt the encrypted version back into the same location, you will be notified that it will overwrite the original unencrypted version.
Note: There is no way to recover a forgotten encryption password. If you forget your encryption
password, you must delete the Encryption folder.
Deleting an Encryption Folder

Figure 14: Seagate Secure logo
You can perform these functions using Seagate Manager:
Unlock your drive Change your drive password
Set, change, or delete a password hint Erase your drive
Unlocking Your Drive
Your Seagate Secure drive locks automatically each time you disconnect it from a computer. You can unlock it in either the Seagate Manager application or the Seagate Secure application when your drive is connected to a computer on which the Seagate Manager software is not installed.

If you have more than one Seagate Secure drive connected at the same time, make sure you have selected the drive that you are trying to unlock (the large light on the drive will blink when it is selected). If you do not successfully enter your password after three attempts, you will need to disconnect and reconnect your Seagate Secure drive to try again. If you password contains the letter O or the number 0, make sure you are typing the correct one.
Unlocked Your Seagate Secure Drive But Cant Find It?
If you use the KeyErase feature on your Seagate Secure drive, you must initialize, partition and format it before you can use it.
